The weekend of April 20th, we went down to south Georgia. If you have ever been to south Georgia, it is almost like a step back in time. Tons of agriculture, lots of 'famous' claims and no traffic!
Our first stop was Providence Canyon. It is a really neat place, but really neglected. I guess with budget cuts, they have just let me go. It is called the 'little Grand Canyon' of Georgia. It is actually caused by poor farming practices long ago.
Our second stop was George Bagby State Park even farther south. It was a super nice state park. We actually stayed at the lodge and really enjoyed it. David and Garrett took a canoe out on the lake (we later found out there are alligators in the lake, eek!).
Our last stop was Okefenokee Swamp in Waycross, GA. We had been once before, but I was 7 months pregnant and it was literally 100 degrees. It was still really hot that day, but much better.
These are actual wild, live alligators...
We took a boat ride through the swamp. David was pointing out a big alligator that apparently likes to charge the boat!
We started the ride in between storms and got absolutely soaked during the ride. This was when Garrett was happy and dry.
